Parsing itself is not that hard, actually. We just need to follow http://www.bibtex.org/SpecialSymbols/. However, it will be better if the parsing is done on bibtex.el side. If bibtex.el maintainer refuses to implement the request, we will just do the parsing on Org side. -- Ihor Radchenko, Org mode contributor, Learn more about Org mode at https://orgmode.org/.
